Four alternative answers for the following question is given. Choose the correct alternative

In a cyclic ▢ABCD, twice the measure of ∠A is thrice the measure of ∠C. Find the measure of ∠C?

विकल्प

  • 36°

  • 72°

  • 90°

  • 108°

MCQ

उत्तर

ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral.

2∠A = 3∠C        .....(1) (Given)

Now,

∠A + ∠C = 180º     ......(Opposite angles of a cyclic

quadrilateral are supplementary)

⇒`3/2` ∠C + ∠C = 180º    [From (1)]

​⇒ `5/2`∠C = 180º

⇒ ∠C = `(2 xx 180º)/5` = 72º

Thus, the measure of ∠C is 72º.

Hence, the correct answer is 72º.
